Lost for Words

10 May 2014: Stunning, brilliant, excellent, awesome, surreal….someone get me a thesaurus! These are a few words that can be used to describe this morning’s wonderful sunrise in Canberra. I am constantly bewildered and blown away every time I venture out on the water. Every sunrise has its own unique signature and this morning’s was spectacular. I hope that you enjoy the shots as much as I enjoyed taking them. Have a great weekend!

Absolute CRACKER of a Sunrise in CBR

9 May 2014: WOW…. What a morning! There’s nothing better than drifting your way into a gorgeous pastel sunrise while floating amongst pink mist,  it’s truly such a beautiful experience. The conditions were near perfect, the colours were superb and the morning transformation was yet again brilliant. I hope that you enjoy the photostory of my paddle on Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra this morning. Have a great day!

 

The early morning colours were fantastic .

Beautiful Recipe

6 May 2014:I love how the mist turns gold just as the sun pops. The light was so soft, mist was hovering all around and the water was like a sheet of glass. Now that is definitely a beautiful recipe, I love my misty morning paddles on LBG and this morning didn’t disappoint. It’s shaping up to be gorgeous autumn day in Canberra and I hope that it is an enjoyable one for you.

Change of Scenery

18 April 2014: LBG definitely had an alpine feel about it this morning with mist hovering in the valleys and the surrounding mountains. At 5.45am the sky was clear and I was being treated to some very soft morning tones. The scenery changed dramatically when the fog rolled in from the East Basin blanketing the entire lake and creating a mystical scene.

Immersed in a World of Beauty

17 April 2014: This morning I was engulfed by a golden misty blanket and transported to a world of sheer beauty. The elements were all on my side with clear skies, non existent winds and water like a sheet of glass. I’m absolutely loving autumn in Canberra.

Breathtakingly Beautiful

15 April 2014: I was engulfed by golden mist and shards of light as I paddled my way into the Jerrabomberra Wetlands this morning. I am always in awe of the scenery on display in our nation’s capital. It really is breathtakingly beautiful at this time of the year and I encourage others to experience what Canberra has to offer.

Sunset Serenade

The winds were light, the light was superb and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of my sunset serenade…..I hope that you enjoy it as well.

Lights and Colour

8 April 2014: This morning I was guided by the lights of Kings Avenue Bridge, The National Carillon and the foreshore as I paddled my way into the main basin in the hope of another stunning sunrise. Unfortunately the conditions didn’t allow that to happen, but luckily for me the ever happy ‘Dragons Abreast’ ladies were out on LBG and they added a huge splash of colour to an overcast morning. I just love their enthusiasm and fun, they are such a great site on the water.

Autumn Mystic

29 March 2014: There’s something special about slicing through glassy waters in the dark while being surrounded in fog. Autumn is here and I’m loving it, I was so excited the moment I open the door at 5.30am to discover that it was a foggy morning here in Canberra. The winds were no existent and I just couldn’t get myself down to the lake quick enough. It’s something that is hard to describe, but it’s an experience that is totally unique and something quite a surreal.

I wonder if Excalibur is hidden here....That's how it felt.
